shows how hard it can be to judge from the still!

By:

Keefter When: 20 Jan 15 16:18

only guessing but do you think the prerace market had an influence on that photo betting? IR markets generally do.

By:

Wesdag When: 20 Jan 15 16:18

Indeed Poppydog.

I think they were swayed by the atr boys.

By:

Wesdag When: 20 Jan 15 16:19

The atr freeze appears not to have been on the line judging by the print.

I still can't believe that didn't win going on the vision I was seeing

that's a horrible camera position

Backed Very first blade and thought worst would be a dead heat
secondly don't tell me those horses don't feel the whip Morris gave it one crack 1/2 f out that launched it onabout 1/2 a length

feel as tho i've been mugged.

I am feeling the same way, thought I did the right thing and took the early market 13's on offer

only to see it get beat after watching it live and thinking for all money it won

Paused and rewound this several times. winner is clearly beaten a yard before and after the line.

Unreal luck just now. had a decent bet on the Packers at the weekend.

sigh

I had no doubt it had won, didn't even believe for a second there was a chance the runner up had in fact won on the footage I was looking at

I normally have a good eye for photo finishes, that camera is extremely deceptive

Swagger When: 20 Jan 15 16:34

The camera angle can't be straight. I backed Layline several weeks back and thought it had won only to find out it had got beaten a short head when visually it looked like it won it on the line. Same rules apply today, if you freeze it on the line it looks like Very First Blade has won so the angle can't be straight.

I had the winner, but never for a second did I think it got up. Got lucky for a change!

Not that I doubt the photo finish at all but its just a white line on the picture with the hosses - all you see is the white line and dirt - that could be after 2 furlongs for all I know - love a good conspiracy.

Have you clicked on the "Photo Finish" within the red box - left hand side?

By:

scaredmoney When: 20 Jan 15 23:08

cant see "photo finish" within the red box

probs me being a clown...and had a few beers

By:

AFTERTHOUGHT When: 20 Jan 15 23:29

put the beer down and go to southwell results and click on 410, there is a red rectangle on the left with letters forming words like stewards report - photo finish - racecard.
